Roald Dahl’s Revolting Recipes

Snozzcumbers

Snozzcumbers are the BFG's favourite food. Described as looking like a cucumber, but being very different, Sophie said the original Snozzcumber tasted of frogskin and rotten fish, while the BFG said it tasted like cockroaches and slime wanglers. We wonder what you'll think after making your very own!

Always remember to supervise children using sharp objects such as knives or corers. There are also many substitute fillings to this recipe, so feel free to experiment with taro-masalata, cream cheese, smoked salmon and chives to your heart's content. Find the recipeand start baking here!
